High fashion, expense for Hillary travel (´presidential suite,´ stenographer, G4 or larger, etc..)
The Las Vegas Review-Journal ^ | August 16, 2014 | Laura Myers

Hillary Rodham Clinton likes to travel in style.

She insists on staying in the “presidential suite” of luxury hotels that she chooses anywhere in the world, including Las Vegas.

She usually requires those who pay her six-figure fees for speeches to also provide a private jet for transportation — only a $39 million, 16-passenger Gulfstream G450 or larger will do.

And she doesn’t travel alone, relying on an entourage of a couple of “travel aides,” and a couple of advance staffers who check out her speech site in the days leading up to her appearance, much like a White House trip, according to her contract and supporting documents concerning her Oct. 13 speech at a University of Nevada, Las Vegas Foundation fundraiser. The documents were obtained by the Las Vegas Review-Journal through the state public records law.

CENTER OF ATTENTION

Clinton, a former first lady, U.S. senator from New York and U.S. secretary of state, is expected to run for president in 2016. Her lifestyles of the rich and famous ways and comments that she made about her wealth during a recent book tour have fueled criticism that she’s out of touch with average Americans.

The Democratic contender said she pays taxes, unlike some people who are “truly well off.” She also said she and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, were “dead broke” when they left the White House in 2001. In the past eight years alone, the couple has earned more than $100 million, much of it from speaking fees, according to Politico....

A smart consultant could use this as a hammer on her. Too bad the GOP doesn't have any or is afraid of being labeled misogynists.

I hope she and her faux husband have to dumpster dive after the revolution, unless we put them in a cell, then we’ll feed them expired bologna and stale bread like Sheriff Joe does.

The only way I would pay to see Hillary Clinton is watching her go to prison which she so richly deserves.

Hillary is looking very old and unhealthy, like she isn’t long for this world. It’s hard to believe she is running for president.

Who cares if the Clintons are rich?
Does anyone care that Perry or Romney are rich?
How many Freepers are rich?
Why are we distracted by the notion that these famous and successful people are also wealthy?
Does the fact they live well make them bad?
Does the fact YOU live well make you bad?
Or - might it be their morals, decisions, deeds?

It’s not their wealth, it’s how they came about it. Gov. Romney seems to have made his fortune in business. Fine. The Clintons, on the other hand, have had a graft and somewhat “legal” bribery racket going on since they left the White House. Big difference.

Politics is supposed to be about governance, or am I wrong?
